This is probably the most frequently asked question of The Student Ministry. The tough part is, there is no one right answer for every student. We do want to mention a few different ideas of getting your son/daughter involved in The Student Ministry. One of the easiest ways to get your student involved is to introduce them to one of the Student Staff Members during the week or at one of our Sunday services at the Cross Point Center. We invite you to come with your student to get to know the staff and the other volunteers that will be investing time into your son/daughter. Once a staff member meets them, the staff member will find a student who can show your son/daughter around during the services. This is key to having your student feel “plugged in”.

Another way to get your student connected is to get them involved in a small group. These small groups are called Elevate, and we have them on Sundays in the AM and PM. The Elevate AM groups are age and gender divided and meet in the Cross Point Center. High School students (Varsity) meet in the activity center and the middle school (JV) meet in the green room. Elevate PM is also divided between JV and Varsity, JV meet at the Cross Point Center from 6-8 pm and Varsity meeting in homes near you during the school year. These smaller group settings allow for a deep study of Gods word and conversations about who God is. This is where we develop strong relational leverage with our students. Most groups average between 12-25 people. You can go to the Elevate page on this website or call The Student Ministry office to find out more details about Elevate and where your son’s/daughter’s group meets.

Another way to get your son/daughter involved in the ministry is to come to a major event. Because of all the events we have, it may be a lot less threatening to come to an event rather than a church service or Bible study. The student ministry staff wants to do whatever is possible in order for your student to get involved in the ministry. There is no greater thing your son/daughter could be involved in than The Student Ministry at Scotts Hill Baptist Church as they move through those turbulent middle school and High School years.
